The Rant! 😡 #02: Stand on the Right.

I travel to work everyday using the London Underground Tube service. I am positive this will not be my only rant about public transport in London but it is one I need to get off my chest.

It would seem that despite the fact that in our lives for over a hundred years (no exaggeration) some people are still confused about the escalator etiquette in London.

There are many stupid things people do on escalators that I won’t even bother getting into today. The one rule I care about is a simple one. If you would like to stand and let the magical mechanical stairs take your lazy ass to your destination then you are more than entitled to do that, but please stand on the right hand side.

keep any bags or pets you may be travelling with on your right hand side thus not obstructing the left hand side for others to walk up or down.
